Trend de la Creme For Coutorture: Spineless Haute Couture

For today's Trend de la Creme for Coutorture comparison, haute couture is given a funny likeness. The Joseph Font Fall 08 Couture show was full of billowing silhouettes and bright colors. Apparently this was a red flag in the mind of our brilliant Network Partner, Trend de la Creme, for she saw an immediate connection to mysterious invertebrates. This is not the first time such a comparison has been made, in fact, our Network Partner saw a likeness in Plankton and in Invertebrates once before. It's quite amazing how she does it, and what we enjoy most about the comparison is that it seems to shed some light on the aesthetic properties of the look. Suddenly that yellow frock looks like a living, breathing organism that's miraculously landed above ground for a Parisian fashion show. At the end of July, when news is slow (alas, fashion week is just around the corner), this vantage point is a breath of fresh air.
